Stressfull ending to my work day and just wanted to go home after, but I bucked up and went back to the gym to do my cardio and it made me feel alive and great.AWESOME Chest & Triceps workout.Helped other people achieve their goals in work today.I keep referring to myself as Coach Blandy at work which is a few promotions away from where I am now, other people are picking up on it and saying it to. Kind of made me laugh but wanted to get it in the Chefs mind so when they need a new coach they know where to come!!!

What about my day could I improve to make things EVEN BETTER?

Take bad days, experiences in my stride and know that I can change my emotions in an instant.Push harder in my weights workout and keep that mental focus.

What can I do to make things more enjoyable?

Keep on helping others by supporting them achieve their goals.Have fun because the journey is just as important as the destination.Believe I am the BEST because I am!Dream Dream Dream about this Million Dollar home, because when I get it I need to know style it out and where the BIG TV will be going.

Can you spill any beans on your restaurant plans? Sounds like you have had a great week, do you have any plans for the weekend? I heard there's been a crazy amount of rain in the UK lately... so much for Summer aye ?!

Can you spill any beans on your restaurant plans? Sounds like you have had a great week, do you have any plans for the weekend? I heard there's been a crazy amount of rain in the UK lately... so much for Summer aye ?!

I am in Vancouver where the weather is perfect at the moment, so if it rains in Manchester who cares,lol. The day i left Manchester i forgot all about it, i class myself as Canadian now, its a shame Immigration dont yet,lol, but they soon will.As for the restaurant, i had always wanted a Pizza Restaurant, that is my dream. Since being a Vegan and healthier my ideas have changed slightly.I want a "healthy" old skool sort of Diner that is Vegan, i think about selling meat aswell to appeal to more people but then it goes against what i am doing. I will never judge others for eating meat or any animal products but i have decided i would like to be surrounded by similar people. My theory is if you open a greasy pizza parlour, you will get unhealthy greasy customers and being surrounded by people like that will rub off on you so i want to be surrounded by healthy Vegans and healthy people who arent Vegans but enjoy a meal that has no animal products.

I could go on but that is the main idea, of course there will be a few meals considered treats but everyone needs a treat day even healthy people.
